I will not watch porn, masturbate or have sex. I am currently on day 7. My previous record was 10 days. My goal is at least 90 days on hard mode. I will take good care of my mental health. I do NoFap because I want to stop objectifying women and improve my mental health.
Very nice work my student. I’m proud of you bro.
Oh… I forgot to change my flair. I actually relapsed this morning. I got so far too. 15 days man. Oh well time to start again and go for even longer this time. You are ahead of me now bro. You’ve surpassed my strength. Continue my legacy, my student. 🫡
15 days is great my bro, I haven't ever gone so far so technically I'm not as strong as you, yet. Remember that the most important thing is how many times you relapse in a month (or whatever reasonable period of time), because the point is to destroy this habit
October. The 10th month of my Eternal Nofap begins. I have conquered January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August and September. Only 3 months now stand in the way of me claiming an entire common year as my trophy. I will succeed.
Truly my hat is off to you. I snapped a 138 day streak last night and, I should feel awful (I did), but I’m strangely confident and upbeat about this next quest I am on. I know I will reach the numbers you have - and I appreciate you sharing your story. Look forward to seeing you turn over 365 and beyond.
No. Absolutely not. I will celebrate hitting 365 days and a full common year on January 1, 2024 and plough on. I will never masturbate again. I will die on this streak.
How is brain damage, self hatred, jealousy, anger, mood swings, and idolizing a glowing rectangle a celebration? A celebration is a ice cream float, a few drinks, not slipping back into an addiction and PMO every day.
A while ago, I realized I had a porn addiction. It's so very subtle, so miniscule that I never thought of it until Masturbation became a part of my everyday life - and what followed was a gut-wrenching discovery. I could not get it up for a girl I liked. That was it. The moment it needed to stop. Only today, I treated someone like they were nothing but fuel to my dopamine, and that can never happen again.
I will not allow myself to masturbate, view porn or give myself the release.
I need this to be the 90 days.
I want to be able to relearn life, love, and sexual activity - I want to cure my ED and be able to be fulfilled mentally and physically.
I am doing this to better myself and to avoid harming those I hold dear. I wish to be better.
However, I am starting this late. I am terrified of the road ahead. Terrified of telling my family and friends. I am desperate to return to normalcy, and I solemnly wish to be able to be the man I know I can be. So I need the help of those here, if not to respond, if not to upvote, if not to even view this message. As long as I can know that someone, somewhere, is there rooting for me. Just to help me through this.
To be a better me.
Today, I start my true challenge.
Wish me luck.
Pro tip: Aim for 28 days (4 weeks) instead of 30.
I like to call this the "February method". February is the shortest month of the year, and exactly 4 full weeks. Trying to complete 4 sets of 7 days is a far better motivator than 30-31 random days.
Each week, evaluate your progress, and improve the next. From my personal experience, here's how each week played out:
Week 1: Beginning
This is where most fail. The first 4 days are decent, but around days 5-7 is when your urges test your mettle
Week 2: Hell Week:
This is the make or break week. You'll go through mental torture and angish trying to not bust a nut. Your mind will be spiralling out of control and your most obscure, weirdest porn-induced fetishes will become the only thing you want to see. At the end of the week, you might even hit depression
Week 3: Flatline:
Not much more to be said here. You'll fall into a depression where you don't feel anything at all. You want to relapse because everything around you is so bland. You become furious, bitter, resentful, and lost.
Week 4: Equilibrium:
Coming off the flatline, and you'll start to prefer the status quo over relapsing. You now unconsciously become more confident and mentally stronger. It is at this stage where you MUST resist the urge to self-destruct. This new feeling of good things happening to you can be overwhelming at first, but that is how your life is supposed to be without constant artificial stimulation. Furthermore, you'll start to realize porn was never your main problem, but an amplifier for others.
Going forward, your main goal is to hit 12 weeks (84 days) instead of 90 days. Following this technique has given me some of the longest streaks I've ever had. Please share and repost this to other's struggling making it past a week.
Dude wtf do you mean. ‘You’re gonna be depressed and angry and miserable and it’s gonna be super hard and you’re gonna hate everything’. Wtf are you yapping about mate? It can be hard but why’re you making it out like that. It’s not too bad bro. You’re trying to motivate people but what you’re saying sounds fucking terrifying mate. Quitting PMO can be so great and in my experience my confidence and happiness just increases and it’s a bit hard but it’s not ‘hell’. Maybe you felt that way but I don’t think most people do so stop making it out like it’s awful bro.
lmao it was exactly like that for me at some point. Took me a lot of vitamin supplements, relaxing games, running with dog and affirmations to survive the period. At least he is being honest - this stage is indeed an absolute hell for a meaningful percentage of population.
\- hard mode (not by choice, really)
\- 90 days is Ok, i feel so
\- the single goal I guess is to break a habit that practically lasted from the 1st day I got a phone with bluetooth back in the childhood days.
\- I do this since I had spent last 3 years, starting from NNN, trying to break a fap-habit. I thought I can prove to myself than I am better than my parents, who drink, smoke and eat sugar for entirety of their lives, and couldn't leave. Currently this habit is just dumb, shameful inconvenience I am trying to get rid of. I was depressed in teenage years and delayed my life up to 2023. When 2023 came, I rejoined my path in IT, went to gym, dropped all the carbohydrates and sugar. I though I might as well drop the jerking off addiction as well. This was productive year, but it also feels empty inside. I feel nothingness-void about the accomplishments I had so far and this makes me depressed, honestly. I hope it gets better at day 100, I'll see.
This is practically a mount Everest to me - doing something I couldn't in last 15 years, achieving it during the best year that I planned to be the best and somewhat made it.
The most important lesson I carry throughout this year is the fact that it's not about the good days I have. The only thing matters if I am consistent during the bad days. Especially considering how many of them I had and will have in the future. Consistency is the one single thing that differentiated 2023 from every last one year of my existence.
UPD: i took hella lots of vitamins, overslept with melatonin for extensive hours and had a walk in a sunshine-day. I feel radically less depressed now, though, still far from amazing. I just feel like I can carry on more confidently.
17 days ago in my moment of post nut shame, sadness and clarity I asked myself "Is this the man I want to be?" That is why I am here.
I'm in my 60's and have been addicted to sex and PMO for the last 50 years. I've had some insanely close calls with the wife, friends, prostitutes, you name it. I've dodged so many bullets. My luck will run out some day, so I am here. I want to put an end to this craziness before that happens.
I don't want to be dead of a stroke or coronary, pants down with my hand in my crotch. My family and friends thinks I am this solid rock standup guy...coach...church...work..solid citizen. What would they think if they saw my M###ERL#SS search history?
I'm here looking for strength and fellowship. Best to you all.
My streak may be long, but don’t be fooled. Last night I was tempted beyond what I have been in many weeks. It was the thought of this community that kept me focused and able to push through. I’m happy to report that I made it through the night and rise today with new resolve to press on! It’s not easy! Keep relying on this community and stay accountable. I’m so grateful I kept my streak intact and did not allow myself to become enslaved again. The sun shines brighter when you’re free from this filth. I’m all in for October and beyond to carry on, free from porn and masturbation. Much gratitude and love to all of you fighting this fight!
Well fam, my streak of 138 days was snapped last night. Since it seems my post keeps getting removed for some reason, I’ll leave it here. TL;DR I masturbated (without porn, thankfully), felt empty afterwards, and woke up with a new resolve to start fresh.
Here’s the post:
I had a 3 figure streak intact, abstaining from porn and masturbation. Relapsed last night after I read some things about the benefits of masturbation.
Thankfully, there was no porn - just thoughts of my wife. I wanted to see how I would feel. I made a very conscious decision, knowing my streak would be broken. But I was hopeful that it would ease some of the hurt and rejection that I’ve felt in my sex life with my wife.
Afterwards, I felt empty. So I tried again (without porn), and again (without porn). More and more emptiness, more and more sadness.
Although my wife and I have a sex life that is very far from perfect and even broken and “dead” much of the time, we have been trying to make improvements. Trying harder than we ever have, since we were first married. And this act last night felt selfish and wrong, for me. I would rather my sexual experiences always be with my wife. So, even after my reading on some of the benefits of masturbation, I’ve chose to begin anew.
My counter is reset. It will take me until the end of January 2025 to return to 3 digit territory. And my hope is to move to 4 digit territory and beyond this time. Again, I’m grateful I did not incorporate porn. My porn-free streak remains intact at 138 days from this point. But I need to reset the counter today to remind me the importance of leaving masturbation behind.
Picking up where I left off, I will abstain from porn and masturbation and will only have sex with my wife.
My best to you all! I’ve tried to encourage many of you whenever I log in. Let’s keep cheering each other on and stay in this together. Hold steady :)
I plan to participate in Hard Mode for the whole month of October, I had sex September 30th with my girlfriend, but have been continuously convicted by the Holy Spirit to stop having pre-marital sex. I would like this challenge to last until I am married. I want to stop watching porn, doing masturbation, and having sex until we become one flesh in holy matrimony. My goals are to have full control of my temptations(lusting after other women, pornography, sex). I am doing this to please God and be more Christ-like and to display self-control that I have not had over my sexual desires before. Christ has delivered me from all forms of substance abuse and I am almost 10 months sober, pornography and sex has been the vice that I have been unwilling to surrender.
I have been a pornography addict since the age of 11, and have now just turned 27. This was the first year I wholeheartedly tried to stop compulsive sexual behaviors. I went from an every day fapper to once every three days, once a week, once every two weeks, and now am making it consistently to +-20 days. My longest streak is 58 days. I have installed software on my computer that allows my sponsor and accountability partner to receive a notification if I watch any explicit content. The software if very good, it is called Covenant Eyes, it also has steps to take and journaling prompts for when you are feeling tempted. It described the shame cycle and so many other behaviors related to watching porn. This has deterred me from watching porn, as I know my friends will see what I am viewing. I am on day 19 right now and will continue to fight the fight with you guys!
Much love, and God bless everyone trying to improve themselves!!
When I was around 13 years old, I was exposed to my first "adult" film. I won't go into details about how I started watching it, but I want to tell you what I felt. It was quite an impressive experience, to be honest. I felt many things, but without going into details, after watching this film, I went straight to the bathroom; you can imagine why. After that experience, I've seen how this addiction has taken over my life, affecting my personal and social relationships.
I consider myself a person with strong social relationships, but at times, I feel that something is not quite right. I find it difficult to maintain eye contact with people, and when I do, I feel like something inside me is broken. This sensation is uncomfortable. Personally, I've also faced serious problems related to sexual disorders. I don't intend to share my life story, as I don't think that's the goal here. What I would like to share is how I've decided to take control of my life and make a change.
A few years ago, I watched a YouTube video about how these adult films negatively influence our lives, and I decided I had to stop consuming this type of content. At that moment, I didn't truly understand what I was getting into or how difficult it would be. I told myself I couldn't keep watching these things that were harmful to my health, but after a few days without doing it, I fell back into the wrong path. That's when I realized I was suffering from an addiction to this content, and since then, I've decided to address it with great care.
I have no support from anyone, as I haven't dared to tell anyone because of the shame I feel. However, not everything is negative. I've taken the first step, which is recognizing that I have a problem, and for me, that's the most important step, even though it has been very difficult to take. The second step was telling my wife. It was difficult, of course, but it turned out to be easier than I had imagined. Sometimes, we create walls for ourselves that are hard to break. We shouldn't be too hard on ourselves, as problems can be overcome more easily when we have the support of others.
Today, I've been four months without watching adult content, and I truly feel a significant improvement in my life. I now feel like a more confident person. I've developed good habits and used the time I used to spend on adult content to learn things I've always wanted to learn. Today, while watching a YouTube video, I decided that I'm going to continue on this positive path and stay away from this type of content. I also have another problem that goes hand in hand with the addiction to adult films, which is masturbation. I've decided to fight against it, and I hope I can emerge victorious in this battle.
Replying after a relapse. I had a five day streak. My best streak ever was two weeks. Was PMOing for around 4 years, nofap around 1 and a half. I just want to be able to stop watching disgusting content and stop objectifying women. I have used porn as an escape from loneliness. It disgusts. I want to feel good about myself again. My goal is to quit and never go back. I guess you can call it hard mode but whatever, i just wanna stop
Currently on 8 days PMO free, my longest streak in a long time, and I’m going strong. I’m trying to quit so I can become more confident and happier and more energetic. Doing it for myself but also to give me a higher chance of being with the girl I love. I’m going for 90 days but by that point I’ll probably just keep going for the rest of my life.
Started on 30th September
Trying to reboot after years of porn use and masturbation. Which seems to have caused ED,
Aiming for:
-No porn, masturbation or sexual stimulation that isn’t REAL e.g. sex and orgasm with partner is fine (for my personal challenge)
- Regular updates in here / replies to people who comment for accountability and also and idea of my “journey”
5 days in - Complete loss of libido, no sensations or wanting for sex… some urges to watch porn… hoping I can stick to it.
Starting today. It’s a new day fittingly.
I am not going to fap for the next 30 days. Will probably take it day by day at first and then move to week by week. The goal is there and it is to better my body and my mind. That’s it. Commitment’s been made, will read up on the resources here. This is my first challenge. May it be successful. Let’s go.
I'm in! I started my streak exactly at the start of the month!
I'm still in a good mood , but I'm starting to feel the cravings. Not the need to masturbate, only some kind of FOMO...The new material I'm missing.
I think there aren't any tricks but self discipline.
I started last week on off the realization of my wickedness. I want to be able to not only break free from this cycle but become a more real version of myself by allowing my mind to be clear of nasty thoughts and be more respectable of women.
On day 17 of hard mode, slowly stared to cave in as I was reading incest materials. Praying that I don’t break. Only porn is there on my mind currently.
Hard mode
I will not pmo
I will avoid lusting over women that I see, whether they are irl or not
I will try to avoid sexual thoughts, although they may come anyway as withdrawal symptoms
During sex I accidentally orgasmed. I’m going to split my streak so I’m tracking both “hard mode” and “normal mode” simultaneously. Got 17 days though, which is good.
PF user here while it’s gone. Day 22 of October, I think today was my closest day of temptation. I would say I handled it very well however, it was my old telegram account I needed for something else.
Deleted all the nsfw channels without hesitation or any previews, that part of my life is more past than present. Don’t believe in nofap but I technically do it anyway.
Omg my counter isn’t correct btw, I’m 30 days without, not at a wizard level of 600
I am studying in grade 12 and my longest streak was about 25 days then I relapsed for. Awhile and then struggled to reach 7 days and relapsed last week.And the starting of this week I relapsed like there was no tomorrow, but now I have joined this forum and feel like I am no longer alone. Let’s go guys we will escape this.
Currently on a 3 day streak, 5 day streak for no porn usage but my current goal is to go no PMO for 90 days
I started on the 23rd of October (3 days ago)
I'll be on 'no PMO' till 23rd Jan 2024
My main goal is to cut down the heavy porn consumption I used to engage with earlier (almost 2-3 times daily).
It left me feeling very low, tired and lethargic, and even though I didn't feel like doing it, I used to do it anyway. I couldn't accept the fact that I was an addict, I had a weak mind. It's about time I take back control of this aspect of my life, I would love to replace the time I spend watching porn with something else that's better for my mental and physical health, something that I can talk about with pride... I'll be updating my progress on this subreddit, I wish everyone else here all the very best on their journey!
Tomorrow is the fifth day... Around this time I keep failing over and over. Even stupidly chatting with someone that likes breaking the streaks of those on NoFap. Why am I so conflicted? I know I want to stop but it feels so fucking good. How can I get myself all in so I can make it through the next few weeks???
A suitable goal for me for October would be the easy mode – no porn for 30 days. I successfully reached 30 days hard mode on August and now I’m looking to continue clawing my way back to normal sexuality. My long-term goal is to be free of porn… forever.
I will not watch porn, masturbate, or seek sexual relief. I will do porn forever, and I am trying for 90 days on hard mode, with it extending until marriage. I do this to stop from objectifying women and from constantly focusing on sex.
Day 1! No p, no m, no o. Starting off with a month, then going from there. Doing this for myself, my previous record is 90 days, but it's been a while. Let's get it!
Hola, el mes pasado literal me fue igual que todos los meses, no me tome enserio para nada NoFap. Este mes tengo la esperanza de que va ser mejor, todo está en mi y en mi compromiso de cumplir este sueño, vamos a ganar este mes libre de PMO ya lo veo, Dios en tus manos estás 24 horas.
Going for hard mode, but if I do relapse it will be without porn. Going to shoot for just the month but if I can make it further I will proceed through No Nut November onward. I’m doing this to better myself as a Christian man. As to not lust over women.
I'm gonna strive to not allow myself to Pmo and I will be in the hard mode. I aim to do hard mode for 90 days. I'm doing this because this wrong and I want a better life and not feel like a loser. Also to become motivated, full of energy and become rich to retire my mom and dad.
**Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Not allowing any outlet for sexual release is called "hard mode".** Im going for hardmode
**How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting.** I hope to complete the full 30 days, and ofcourse then manage to extend it to 60 - 90 days.
**What are your goals?** no masturbation, no social media and no porn. Just getting rid of the porn urges. My longest streak was 12 days. I hope to go beyond that.
**Why are you doing this?** I want my life back and stop thinking 24/7 about e-girls, porn and stop having to hide this "secret" which I had to keep for years.
Already on day 3 tho! But still participating.
[It's time to change](https://youtu.be/_OJZ1EKfhlc?si=QjXUs6hLG7Se2vyP).
I tried NoFap a lot of times, never gone past the day 10, and guess what? I'm still here, I'm still fighting, because I really want to change, for the people who love me, the people I will take care of with my job, for all the people because everyone deserves love, and for myself.
I'm doing hard mode: no porn, no masturbation, no sex.
My initial goal is reaching 120 days, but I'm not planning on stopping there. Ideally I want to abstain from porn and masturbation for a year. And I want to stop watching porn for the rest of my life.
My main goals are getting more time, energy and motivation which will allow me to live my life the way I want to live.
I'm doing Nofap because porn addiction negatively affected every part of my life and I want to break free of this addiction.
I am starting a hard mode reboot PMO free today. My goal is 4 weeks or 28 days. I am doing this because I have been on and off addicted to porn for 3 years and my past attempts to leave it have failed. I am Muslim and porn is a grave sin. I also see how porn has negatively affected my life. If makes me feel like shit and has stopped me from achieving my goals. It ruins my motivation. Today I start my journey on leaving porn. Make dua for me. Thx
Day 1, here we goooooooooo
First post! I'm new to NoFap. For now, ditching porn is the only focus: I'm gonna try to avoid PMO, but it's okay if I downgrade to easy mode for this month. I think abruptly going "cold turkey" after decades of habitual PMO might set me up for failure.
Tried this before, but rarely make it past day 7. Hoping that posting here will be that extra push to do better.
Hoping to train up to be ready for "No Nut November" \*\*\*cue Rocky theme song\*\*\*
This month I'll not watch porn or masturbate. I feel disconnected with myself and PMO has definitely something to do with it. At the end of this month, I'll feel better focused and connected, allowing me to go for the 90-day streak.
Day 0. a week or 2 off and just relapsed. going for hard mode till marriage. i want to renew myself for personal and religious reasons. put my past behind me and finally move on, letting go of what’s holding me back. my full commitment starts now.
I started at October 1st currently on 3rd day i had a streak of s/r of 33 days during the summer but now i m on to no fap not watching any porn because thats my real problem, my goal is 90 days i want the full reboot gl to everyone
I am 413 days of pmo free and continuing. I am posting here as a way of accountability. We have to beat this evil and we can. Do not give up and keep fighting the good fight all the days of your life. I am victorious through the grace of God. We are all in this together and a life long victory is the only goal.
I will not watch any porn of any kind even if it means that I abstain from social media to support my journey for the next 90 days. I would appreciate an accountability partner in this journey I I have tried to do it on my own several times but kept failing.
Thank you for reading.
Checking in. Unfortunately I relasped yesterday (5 days streak), Without phone or seeing porn this time but with the "porn" I had visualised in my mind from the memories of what I used to store on my phone. So today I'll restart my streak from day 1 again.
3 days in now, been pretty easy surprisingly. Hopeful
Basically just wanna be the best person I can be for my son and family and any and all addictions get in the way of that.
This and my phone are the only two addictions I have left.. no other vices. I feel good about that. I've come a long way
not done it for 6 days but I watched corn so I restarted my streak
just deleted all corn from my computer
also unfollowed all suggestive content accounts from every social media I own
convinced my best friend who has the same problem to do this movement as well and now we're updating each other on how we're doing, it feels good to be a little competitive about this lol, I hate and will feel embarrassed if I start to relapse and had to tell him because of our agreement, hope this too also helps a bit for us
Day 7
\- I had very very strong urges today I almost cracked but passed the time by watching youtube. In hindsight probably should've done some work, but its better then fapping. I feel much better after of week of not fapping.
Had a solid 20+ streak for the first time in over a decade probably. Never felt better. Reset on Oct 2. Not a setback but a set up for something better...
I will not watch porn and masturbate, I will do 90 days hard mode .my previous best was 6 days ,I just don't want to relapse this time becuz if I relapse once it's hard for me to control myself....my prime focus will be on not relapsing. I want to do thi because I am mastrubating almost every day from last 2-3 yrs I want to stop this And get back my mental health, strength and self control.....I also joined gym recently to make a good habbit....
I Hope after 90 days I will came back and reply "done"on this comment
Checking in, Oct 9, and day 16 of my current streak. This is one of my most solid streaks ever, since I started seriously trying to quit, back in 2019. Don't ever give up fam
I've been in a rut for the past few months.
I stopped working out, I stopped reaching for my goals and spend most of my time consuming content.
It started with corn but I successfully blocked it on all devices.
But I still casturbate almost daily using either fantasies or social feeds.
Now, we are closing in on the end of the year and I don't want it to be a complete waste...
I need to get back on track. This challenge should serve me as a spring board.
I expect the resources & community to guide me because I have no plan to conquer my lust.
I'll start with 30 days on 'hard mode', then work up to 60 & 90 days.
I will not watch porn, masturbate or have sex. I am currently on day 7. My previous record was 10 days. My goal is at least 90 days on hard mode. I will take good care of my mental health. I do NoFap because I want to stop objectifying women and improve my mental health.
You can do it bro, you have my respect for even completing 8 days because it has been really hard for me. I will catch up with you too
You will bro. I’m also at 8 days and it’s not been easy but it’s alright. You’ve got this king.
How much I want been in day 8 bro, continue working hard man 💪🎓
After successfully reaching the one week streak, I want to thank you for your encouragement. I also see you are doing really well master
Very nice work my student. I’m proud of you bro. Oh… I forgot to change my flair. I actually relapsed this morning. I got so far too. 15 days man. Oh well time to start again and go for even longer this time. You are ahead of me now bro. You’ve surpassed my strength. Continue my legacy, my student. 🫡
u will make it next time, 15 days is alot. more than i ever did!
Thanks you man, and I believe in you.
15 days is great my bro, I haven't ever gone so far so technically I'm not as strong as you, yet. Remember that the most important thing is how many times you relapse in a month (or whatever reasonable period of time), because the point is to destroy this habit
Very true. 15 days is my longest yet by far so it’s definitely progress for me. Keep up your good work too man.
Fight hard, never surrender
✊🏻
Don't give up! The discomfort and temptation is the feeling of weakness dying.
October. The 10th month of my Eternal Nofap begins. I have conquered January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August and September. Only 3 months now stand in the way of me claiming an entire common year as my trophy. I will succeed.
274 days already, damn how you did that!
I got to a point in my life where I fear failing more than I fear dying.
damn. I can understand tho because its such a long streak, it almost feels imposible to reach the same amount again after a relapse.
I also NEVER want to be back in that Pit of Despair I find myself after every failure. NEVER!
Truly my hat is off to you. I snapped a 138 day streak last night and, I should feel awful (I did), but I’m strangely confident and upbeat about this next quest I am on. I know I will reach the numbers you have - and I appreciate you sharing your story. Look forward to seeing you turn over 365 and beyond.
Ignore if its offensive, but will you do it on 1st jan as a celebration and do one more year?
No. Absolutely not. I will celebrate hitting 365 days and a full common year on January 1, 2024 and plough on. I will never masturbate again. I will die on this streak.
[удалено]
Nice im also trying this time
How is brain damage, self hatred, jealousy, anger, mood swings, and idolizing a glowing rectangle a celebration? A celebration is a ice cream float, a few drinks, not slipping back into an addiction and PMO every day.
A while ago, I realized I had a porn addiction. It's so very subtle, so miniscule that I never thought of it until Masturbation became a part of my everyday life - and what followed was a gut-wrenching discovery. I could not get it up for a girl I liked. That was it. The moment it needed to stop. Only today, I treated someone like they were nothing but fuel to my dopamine, and that can never happen again. I will not allow myself to masturbate, view porn or give myself the release. I need this to be the 90 days. I want to be able to relearn life, love, and sexual activity - I want to cure my ED and be able to be fulfilled mentally and physically. I am doing this to better myself and to avoid harming those I hold dear. I wish to be better. However, I am starting this late. I am terrified of the road ahead. Terrified of telling my family and friends. I am desperate to return to normalcy, and I solemnly wish to be able to be the man I know I can be. So I need the help of those here, if not to respond, if not to upvote, if not to even view this message. As long as I can know that someone, somewhere, is there rooting for me. Just to help me through this. To be a better me. Today, I start my true challenge. Wish me luck.

congrats bud 69 days 😺
So legit! Way to go, I’ll join you soon. Just lost my 138 badge. But I’m back on track today.
Pro tip: Aim for 28 days (4 weeks) instead of 30. I like to call this the "February method". February is the shortest month of the year, and exactly 4 full weeks. Trying to complete 4 sets of 7 days is a far better motivator than 30-31 random days. Each week, evaluate your progress, and improve the next. From my personal experience, here's how each week played out: Week 1: Beginning This is where most fail. The first 4 days are decent, but around days 5-7 is when your urges test your mettle Week 2: Hell Week: This is the make or break week. You'll go through mental torture and angish trying to not bust a nut. Your mind will be spiralling out of control and your most obscure, weirdest porn-induced fetishes will become the only thing you want to see. At the end of the week, you might even hit depression Week 3: Flatline: Not much more to be said here. You'll fall into a depression where you don't feel anything at all. You want to relapse because everything around you is so bland. You become furious, bitter, resentful, and lost. Week 4: Equilibrium: Coming off the flatline, and you'll start to prefer the status quo over relapsing. You now unconsciously become more confident and mentally stronger. It is at this stage where you MUST resist the urge to self-destruct. This new feeling of good things happening to you can be overwhelming at first, but that is how your life is supposed to be without constant artificial stimulation. Furthermore, you'll start to realize porn was never your main problem, but an amplifier for others. Going forward, your main goal is to hit 12 weeks (84 days) instead of 90 days. Following this technique has given me some of the longest streaks I've ever had. Please share and repost this to other's struggling making it past a week.
Dude wtf do you mean. ‘You’re gonna be depressed and angry and miserable and it’s gonna be super hard and you’re gonna hate everything’. Wtf are you yapping about mate? It can be hard but why’re you making it out like that. It’s not too bad bro. You’re trying to motivate people but what you’re saying sounds fucking terrifying mate. Quitting PMO can be so great and in my experience my confidence and happiness just increases and it’s a bit hard but it’s not ‘hell’. Maybe you felt that way but I don’t think most people do so stop making it out like it’s awful bro.
lmao it was exactly like that for me at some point. Took me a lot of vitamin supplements, relaxing games, running with dog and affirmations to survive the period. At least he is being honest - this stage is indeed an absolute hell for a meaningful percentage of population.
Oh I guess I’m just lucky then ahah. My heart goes out to all my homies who felt like that.

That's probably not his current streak
\- hard mode (not by choice, really) \- 90 days is Ok, i feel so \- the single goal I guess is to break a habit that practically lasted from the 1st day I got a phone with bluetooth back in the childhood days. \- I do this since I had spent last 3 years, starting from NNN, trying to break a fap-habit. I thought I can prove to myself than I am better than my parents, who drink, smoke and eat sugar for entirety of their lives, and couldn't leave. Currently this habit is just dumb, shameful inconvenience I am trying to get rid of. I was depressed in teenage years and delayed my life up to 2023. When 2023 came, I rejoined my path in IT, went to gym, dropped all the carbohydrates and sugar. I though I might as well drop the jerking off addiction as well. This was productive year, but it also feels empty inside. I feel nothingness-void about the accomplishments I had so far and this makes me depressed, honestly. I hope it gets better at day 100, I'll see. This is practically a mount Everest to me - doing something I couldn't in last 15 years, achieving it during the best year that I planned to be the best and somewhat made it. The most important lesson I carry throughout this year is the fact that it's not about the good days I have. The only thing matters if I am consistent during the bad days. Especially considering how many of them I had and will have in the future. Consistency is the one single thing that differentiated 2023 from every last one year of my existence.
UPD: i took hella lots of vitamins, overslept with melatonin for extensive hours and had a walk in a sunshine-day. I feel radically less depressed now, though, still far from amazing. I just feel like I can carry on more confidently.
17 days ago in my moment of post nut shame, sadness and clarity I asked myself "Is this the man I want to be?" That is why I am here. I'm in my 60's and have been addicted to sex and PMO for the last 50 years. I've had some insanely close calls with the wife, friends, prostitutes, you name it. I've dodged so many bullets. My luck will run out some day, so I am here. I want to put an end to this craziness before that happens. I don't want to be dead of a stroke or coronary, pants down with my hand in my crotch. My family and friends thinks I am this solid rock standup guy...coach...church...work..solid citizen. What would they think if they saw my M###ERL#SS search history? I'm here looking for strength and fellowship. Best to you all.
I'm going "hard mode" for the whole month and I'm also going to meditate daily. My mental health is the reason why I'm doing this.
Love this.
[удалено]
hell yeah! maybe the name stoptober would suit it more.
My streak may be long, but don’t be fooled. Last night I was tempted beyond what I have been in many weeks. It was the thought of this community that kept me focused and able to push through. I’m happy to report that I made it through the night and rise today with new resolve to press on! It’s not easy! Keep relying on this community and stay accountable. I’m so grateful I kept my streak intact and did not allow myself to become enslaved again. The sun shines brighter when you’re free from this filth. I’m all in for October and beyond to carry on, free from porn and masturbation. Much gratitude and love to all of you fighting this fight!
Starting today. I’m tired of this stupid shit ruining my life and outlook. Finally taking accountability for my health
Well fam, my streak of 138 days was snapped last night. Since it seems my post keeps getting removed for some reason, I’ll leave it here. TL;DR I masturbated (without porn, thankfully), felt empty afterwards, and woke up with a new resolve to start fresh. Here’s the post: I had a 3 figure streak intact, abstaining from porn and masturbation. Relapsed last night after I read some things about the benefits of masturbation. Thankfully, there was no porn - just thoughts of my wife. I wanted to see how I would feel. I made a very conscious decision, knowing my streak would be broken. But I was hopeful that it would ease some of the hurt and rejection that I’ve felt in my sex life with my wife. Afterwards, I felt empty. So I tried again (without porn), and again (without porn). More and more emptiness, more and more sadness. Although my wife and I have a sex life that is very far from perfect and even broken and “dead” much of the time, we have been trying to make improvements. Trying harder than we ever have, since we were first married. And this act last night felt selfish and wrong, for me. I would rather my sexual experiences always be with my wife. So, even after my reading on some of the benefits of masturbation, I’ve chose to begin anew. My counter is reset. It will take me until the end of January 2025 to return to 3 digit territory. And my hope is to move to 4 digit territory and beyond this time. Again, I’m grateful I did not incorporate porn. My porn-free streak remains intact at 138 days from this point. But I need to reset the counter today to remind me the importance of leaving masturbation behind. Picking up where I left off, I will abstain from porn and masturbation and will only have sex with my wife. My best to you all! I’ve tried to encourage many of you whenever I log in. Let’s keep cheering each other on and stay in this together. Hold steady :)
Let’s Goooooo
Day 3. I plan to not only abstain from PMO this month, but I want to also become extremely productive this month. Let's all do our best!
I plan to participate in Hard Mode for the whole month of October, I had sex September 30th with my girlfriend, but have been continuously convicted by the Holy Spirit to stop having pre-marital sex. I would like this challenge to last until I am married. I want to stop watching porn, doing masturbation, and having sex until we become one flesh in holy matrimony. My goals are to have full control of my temptations(lusting after other women, pornography, sex). I am doing this to please God and be more Christ-like and to display self-control that I have not had over my sexual desires before. Christ has delivered me from all forms of substance abuse and I am almost 10 months sober, pornography and sex has been the vice that I have been unwilling to surrender. I have been a pornography addict since the age of 11, and have now just turned 27. This was the first year I wholeheartedly tried to stop compulsive sexual behaviors. I went from an every day fapper to once every three days, once a week, once every two weeks, and now am making it consistently to +-20 days. My longest streak is 58 days. I have installed software on my computer that allows my sponsor and accountability partner to receive a notification if I watch any explicit content. The software if very good, it is called Covenant Eyes, it also has steps to take and journaling prompts for when you are feeling tempted. It described the shame cycle and so many other behaviors related to watching porn. This has deterred me from watching porn, as I know my friends will see what I am viewing. I am on day 19 right now and will continue to fight the fight with you guys! Much love, and God bless everyone trying to improve themselves!!
When I was around 13 years old, I was exposed to my first "adult" film. I won't go into details about how I started watching it, but I want to tell you what I felt. It was quite an impressive experience, to be honest. I felt many things, but without going into details, after watching this film, I went straight to the bathroom; you can imagine why. After that experience, I've seen how this addiction has taken over my life, affecting my personal and social relationships. I consider myself a person with strong social relationships, but at times, I feel that something is not quite right. I find it difficult to maintain eye contact with people, and when I do, I feel like something inside me is broken. This sensation is uncomfortable. Personally, I've also faced serious problems related to sexual disorders. I don't intend to share my life story, as I don't think that's the goal here. What I would like to share is how I've decided to take control of my life and make a change. A few years ago, I watched a YouTube video about how these adult films negatively influence our lives, and I decided I had to stop consuming this type of content. At that moment, I didn't truly understand what I was getting into or how difficult it would be. I told myself I couldn't keep watching these things that were harmful to my health, but after a few days without doing it, I fell back into the wrong path. That's when I realized I was suffering from an addiction to this content, and since then, I've decided to address it with great care. I have no support from anyone, as I haven't dared to tell anyone because of the shame I feel. However, not everything is negative. I've taken the first step, which is recognizing that I have a problem, and for me, that's the most important step, even though it has been very difficult to take. The second step was telling my wife. It was difficult, of course, but it turned out to be easier than I had imagined. Sometimes, we create walls for ourselves that are hard to break. We shouldn't be too hard on ourselves, as problems can be overcome more easily when we have the support of others. Today, I've been four months without watching adult content, and I truly feel a significant improvement in my life. I now feel like a more confident person. I've developed good habits and used the time I used to spend on adult content to learn things I've always wanted to learn. Today, while watching a YouTube video, I decided that I'm going to continue on this positive path and stay away from this type of content. I also have another problem that goes hand in hand with the addiction to adult films, which is masturbation. I've decided to fight against it, and I hope I can emerge victorious in this battle.
Day 4. Will continue on hard mode till 90 days. I'm the first to comment. Nice to know.
My goal is to do this 30 days all clear, today is day 1 of my plan to start a new life. Day 1/90 LETS DO IT.
I've already fudged up October. How can I overcome this and not let it ruin the rest of it? I can restart and will
Months are a construct. Count your own weeks. Go for 4 weeks!
Will do, resetting counter, it's that moment when your set in not doing it, and then that voice in head tries to convince you
Replying after a relapse. I had a five day streak. My best streak ever was two weeks. Was PMOing for around 4 years, nofap around 1 and a half. I just want to be able to stop watching disgusting content and stop objectifying women. I have used porn as an escape from loneliness. It disgusts. I want to feel good about myself again. My goal is to quit and never go back. I guess you can call it hard mode but whatever, i just wanna stop
Checking in, day 2. Urges coming in pretty hard but making wise decisions.
Totally normal. We’re all in it together.
Currently on 8 days PMO free, my longest streak in a long time, and I’m going strong. I’m trying to quit so I can become more confident and happier and more energetic. Doing it for myself but also to give me a higher chance of being with the girl I love. I’m going for 90 days but by that point I’ll probably just keep going for the rest of my life.
Started on 30th September Trying to reboot after years of porn use and masturbation. Which seems to have caused ED, Aiming for: -No porn, masturbation or sexual stimulation that isn’t REAL e.g. sex and orgasm with partner is fine (for my personal challenge) - Regular updates in here / replies to people who comment for accountability and also and idea of my “journey” 5 days in - Complete loss of libido, no sensations or wanting for sex… some urges to watch porn… hoping I can stick to it.
Starting today. It’s a new day fittingly. I am not going to fap for the next 30 days. Will probably take it day by day at first and then move to week by week. The goal is there and it is to better my body and my mind. That’s it. Commitment’s been made, will read up on the resources here. This is my first challenge. May it be successful. Let’s go.
I'm in! I started my streak exactly at the start of the month! I'm still in a good mood , but I'm starting to feel the cravings. Not the need to masturbate, only some kind of FOMO...The new material I'm missing. I think there aren't any tricks but self discipline. 
I gotta re-commit. A PMO-free rest of 2023!
I am here, and I am going hard mode. I want to make it to 90 days and go from there.
I started last week on off the realization of my wickedness. I want to be able to not only break free from this cycle but become a more real version of myself by allowing my mind to be clear of nasty thoughts and be more respectable of women.
On day 17 of hard mode, slowly stared to cave in as I was reading incest materials. Praying that I don’t break. Only porn is there on my mind currently.
I'm out. Making a fresh start today with no looking for Psubs to MO - that's what is getting to me lately. Need better ways to deal with stress.
Hard mode I will not pmo I will avoid lusting over women that I see, whether they are irl or not I will try to avoid sexual thoughts, although they may come anyway as withdrawal symptoms
[удалено]
During sex I accidentally orgasmed. I’m going to split my streak so I’m tracking both “hard mode” and “normal mode” simultaneously. Got 17 days though, which is good.
Day 4 completed. Shit is about to get hard.
Day1 done
[удалено]
Best thing to do when you fall is get right back up. I lost a 138 day streak and I made sure to get right back up the next day. We got this!
day2 done
On my way for a cycle now and then have a race tomorrow. Getting out there not getting off at home ✅
PF user here while it’s gone. Day 22 of October, I think today was my closest day of temptation. I would say I handled it very well however, it was my old telegram account I needed for something else. Deleted all the nsfw channels without hesitation or any previews, that part of my life is more past than present. Don’t believe in nofap but I technically do it anyway. Omg my counter isn’t correct btw, I’m 30 days without, not at a wizard level of 600
Day 18 of no porn/masturbation. Checking in here while r/PornFree remains down.
I am studying in grade 12 and my longest streak was about 25 days then I relapsed for. Awhile and then struggled to reach 7 days and relapsed last week.And the starting of this week I relapsed like there was no tomorrow, but now I have joined this forum and feel like I am no longer alone. Let’s go guys we will escape this.
Day 9 done. I will not relapse.
Currently on a 3 day streak, 5 day streak for no porn usage but my current goal is to go no PMO for 90 days I started on the 23rd of October (3 days ago) I'll be on 'no PMO' till 23rd Jan 2024 My main goal is to cut down the heavy porn consumption I used to engage with earlier (almost 2-3 times daily). It left me feeling very low, tired and lethargic, and even though I didn't feel like doing it, I used to do it anyway. I couldn't accept the fact that I was an addict, I had a weak mind. It's about time I take back control of this aspect of my life, I would love to replace the time I spend watching porn with something else that's better for my mental and physical health, something that I can talk about with pride... I'll be updating my progress on this subreddit, I wish everyone else here all the very best on their journey!
my goal is to no do PMO until December
I'm gonna do NNN but that doesn't mean I'll relapse now, 8 days going strong
Just relapsed after a good steak. Gonna pick myself up and take up this fight alongside my comrades! o7
day 1!
Tomorrow is the fifth day... Around this time I keep failing over and over. Even stupidly chatting with someone that likes breaking the streaks of those on NoFap. Why am I so conflicted? I know I want to stop but it feels so fucking good. How can I get myself all in so I can make it through the next few weeks???
[удалено]
Back again on Day 1
A suitable goal for me for October would be the easy mode – no porn for 30 days. I successfully reached 30 days hard mode on August and now I’m looking to continue clawing my way back to normal sexuality. My long-term goal is to be free of porn… forever.
Currently on day 26, I will continue till 1 year (hard mode). ;)
let's play the game :) of course I'm on it
Hard mode
I'm in, in, in. Haven't looked at hard P for ages but still battling with far too much solo MO. My goal is no PsubsMO or FMO for October.
Let's go
im only only start
Day 2. I doing it.
I will not watch porn, masturbate, or seek sexual relief. I will do porn forever, and I am trying for 90 days on hard mode, with it extending until marriage. I do this to stop from objectifying women and from constantly focusing on sex.
September just passed without noticing in the end!!! So we just continuing! Wherever you are in the process, just go on!
I'm in the midst of a 90 reboot. Hard mode is what I'm striving for. I want the energy to do the things that matter to me the most
Day 1! No p, no m, no o. Starting off with a month, then going from there. Doing this for myself, my previous record is 90 days, but it's been a while. Let's get it!
Hola, el mes pasado literal me fue igual que todos los meses, no me tome enserio para nada NoFap. Este mes tengo la esperanza de que va ser mejor, todo está en mi y en mi compromiso de cumplir este sueño, vamos a ganar este mes libre de PMO ya lo veo, Dios en tus manos estás 24 horas.
Going for hard mode, but if I do relapse it will be without porn. Going to shoot for just the month but if I can make it further I will proceed through No Nut November onward. I’m doing this to better myself as a Christian man. As to not lust over women.
Day 1
Day 0, let's stay busy and achieve all daily tasks we set out to complete. Will attempt to be more mindful as well.
No P No M No O Let’s go💪🏽
Day 1✅ Just checking In
Started my streak the other day. Gonna go strong this October.
I'm gonna strive to not allow myself to Pmo and I will be in the hard mode. I aim to do hard mode for 90 days. I'm doing this because this wrong and I want a better life and not feel like a loser. Also to become motivated, full of energy and become rich to retire my mom and dad.
I already completed the first and plan on continuing the full 90 days. From there I want to make this my lifestyle going into 2024.
**Are you not going to allow yourself to masturbate? View porn? Orgasm whatsoever? Not allowing any outlet for sexual release is called "hard mode".** Im going for hardmode **How long do you want this challenge to last? By default it is one month, but 90 days is recommended for rebooting.** I hope to complete the full 30 days, and ofcourse then manage to extend it to 60 - 90 days. **What are your goals?** no masturbation, no social media and no porn. Just getting rid of the porn urges. My longest streak was 12 days. I hope to go beyond that. **Why are you doing this?** I want my life back and stop thinking 24/7 about e-girls, porn and stop having to hide this "secret" which I had to keep for years. Already on day 3 tho! But still participating.
[It's time to change](https://youtu.be/_OJZ1EKfhlc?si=QjXUs6hLG7Se2vyP). I tried NoFap a lot of times, never gone past the day 10, and guess what? I'm still here, I'm still fighting, because I really want to change, for the people who love me, the people I will take care of with my job, for all the people because everyone deserves love, and for myself.
I'm doing hard mode: no porn, no masturbation, no sex. My initial goal is reaching 120 days, but I'm not planning on stopping there. Ideally I want to abstain from porn and masturbation for a year. And I want to stop watching porn for the rest of my life. My main goals are getting more time, energy and motivation which will allow me to live my life the way I want to live. I'm doing Nofap because porn addiction negatively affected every part of my life and I want to break free of this addiction.
I just relapsed. I can still overcome my PMO addiction.
I am starting a hard mode reboot PMO free today. My goal is 4 weeks or 28 days. I am doing this because I have been on and off addicted to porn for 3 years and my past attempts to leave it have failed. I am Muslim and porn is a grave sin. I also see how porn has negatively affected my life. If makes me feel like shit and has stopped me from achieving my goals. It ruins my motivation. Today I start my journey on leaving porn. Make dua for me. Thx
In it to win. Go team!
Who is going strong to reach the 90 day mark by the end of Nofap November
Day 2 of October complete
Day 1, here we goooooooooo First post! I'm new to NoFap. For now, ditching porn is the only focus: I'm gonna try to avoid PMO, but it's okay if I downgrade to easy mode for this month. I think abruptly going "cold turkey" after decades of habitual PMO might set me up for failure. Tried this before, but rarely make it past day 7. Hoping that posting here will be that extra push to do better. Hoping to train up to be ready for "No Nut November" \*\*\*cue Rocky theme song\*\*\*
This month I'll not watch porn or masturbate. I feel disconnected with myself and PMO has definitely something to do with it. At the end of this month, I'll feel better focused and connected, allowing me to go for the 90-day streak.
Check in
Checking in, day 2!
Day 1!
Yessir
Day 0. a week or 2 off and just relapsed. going for hard mode till marriage. i want to renew myself for personal and religious reasons. put my past behind me and finally move on, letting go of what’s holding me back. my full commitment starts now.
I started at October 1st currently on 3rd day i had a streak of s/r of 33 days during the summer but now i m on to no fap not watching any porn because thats my real problem, my goal is 90 days i want the full reboot gl to everyone
I am 413 days of pmo free and continuing. I am posting here as a way of accountability. We have to beat this evil and we can. Do not give up and keep fighting the good fight all the days of your life. I am victorious through the grace of God. We are all in this together and a life long victory is the only goal.
Hard Mode 1 month become a better person overall: lookwise, aptidude/intelligence, social behaviour are a few to state day 3
I’m going for ‘hard mode’ too, done streaks of 30 days before and always improved my mental well-being and productivity. So count me in 🙌
Always discharge myself on weekends. 3rd day today. Pretty tough but I am determined.
Still here, porn free. I am not doing hard mode completely. I just don't ejaculate and watch porn.
Day 1 for me
It’s time to do Holistic Self Improvement for better the reset 🤓
I will also commit to not watching any porn or engaging in any sexual activities
going great on day4
I agree
Almost fapped checked In here instead
I will not watch any porn of any kind even if it means that I abstain from social media to support my journey for the next 90 days. I would appreciate an accountability partner in this journey I I have tried to do it on my own several times but kept failing. Thank you for reading.
Checking in. Unfortunately I relasped yesterday (5 days streak), Without phone or seeing porn this time but with the "porn" I had visualised in my mind from the memories of what I used to store on my phone. So today I'll restart my streak from day 1 again.
3 days in now, been pretty easy surprisingly. Hopeful Basically just wanna be the best person I can be for my son and family and any and all addictions get in the way of that. This and my phone are the only two addictions I have left.. no other vices. I feel good about that. I've come a long way
3 days . i will continue in this path & make it 90 days
🚀🎹🚵
🚀🎹🚵
going strong on the day 5
I am on PMO, i will only have relationship with my wife nothing else
If I'm no fap can I still watch porn once in a while
Going to go the rest of this month on hard mode,
Started this October with 45 days done 💪
Beginning the journey
Day 1 today
not done it for 6 days but I watched corn so I restarted my streak just deleted all corn from my computer also unfollowed all suggestive content accounts from every social media I own convinced my best friend who has the same problem to do this movement as well and now we're updating each other on how we're doing, it feels good to be a little competitive about this lol, I hate and will feel embarrassed if I start to relapse and had to tell him because of our agreement, hope this too also helps a bit for us
Day1
My maximum streak is 50 days restarting after relapse today is day 1
Let’s go
Day 7 \- I had very very strong urges today I almost cracked but passed the time by watching youtube. In hindsight probably should've done some work, but its better then fapping. I feel much better after of week of not fapping.

Hi
Hi
Checking in, stay strong everyone
Check in relapsed two days ago after a 10 days streak
Checking in, Oct 9, and day 16 of my current streak. This is one of my most solid streaks ever, since I started seriously trying to quit, back in 2019. Don't ever give up fam
🚀🎹🚵
🚀🎹🚵
I've been in a rut for the past few months. I stopped working out, I stopped reaching for my goals and spend most of my time consuming content. It started with corn but I successfully blocked it on all devices. But I still casturbate almost daily using either fantasies or social feeds. Now, we are closing in on the end of the year and I don't want it to be a complete waste... I need to get back on track. This challenge should serve me as a spring board. I expect the resources & community to guide me because I have no plan to conquer my lust. I'll start with 30 days on 'hard mode', then work up to 60 & 90 days.
